a removable cover body configured to removably attach to the infusion pump, wherein the removable cover body is a cover for a power supply cavity in an infusion pump, wherein the removable cover body seals the power supply power supply cavity and maintains a power supply within the power supply cavity;
a conductor assembly attached to the cover body;
a spring having a first and second end, the first end attached to the conductor assembly; and
a power supply contact assembly attached to the second end of the spring and extending further from the removable cover body than the conductor, wherein an electrical coupling between a power supply to the conductor assembly is formed through the spring.
2. The removable power supply cover assembly of claim 1 further comprising a battery.
3. The removable power supply cover assembly of claim 1 wherein the housing body further comprising:
a sealing assembly for releasable engaging at least a portion of an enclosure assembly and forming an essentially water-tight seal between the removable cover assembly and the enclosure assembly.
4. The removable power supply cover assembly of claim 3 wherein the sealing assembly comprising an o-ring assembly.
5. The removable power supply cover assembly of claim 1 wherein the housing body is configured to allow access to a power supply cavity and effectuate removable insertion of a removable power supply assembly into the power supply cavity.
6. An infusion pump assembly comprising:
an enclosure assembly;
a pump assembly positioned at least partially within the enclosure assembly and configured to effectuate the dispensing of the infusible fluid contained in a reservoir assembly;
a power supply cavity positioned within the enclosure assembly; and
a removable cover assembly configured to releasably engage the enclosure assembly, the removable cover assembly comprising:
a removable cover body configured to removably attach to the enclosure assembly, wherein the removable cover body is a cover for the power supply cavity in the infusion pump assembly, wherein the removable cover body seals the power supply power supply cavity and maintains a removable power supply assembly within the power supply cavity;
a conductor assembly attached to the cover body;
a spring having a first and second end, the first end attached to the conductor assembly; and
a power supply contact assembly attached to the second end of the spring and extending further from the removable cover body than the conductor, wherein an electrical coupling between a removable power supply to the conductor assembly is formed through the spring.
7. The infusion pump assembly of claim 6 further comprising wherein the reservoir assembly positioned at least partially within the enclosure assembly and configured to contain an infusible fluid.
8. The infusion pump assembly of claim 6 further comprising processing logic positioned at least partially within the enclosure assembly and configured to control the pump assembly.
9. The infusion pump assembly of claim 6 further comprising a battery.
10. The infusion pump assembly of claim 6 wherein the removable cover assembly comprising:
a sealing assembly for releasable engaging at least a portion of the enclosure assembly and forming an essentially water-tight seal between the removable cover assembly and the enclosure assembly.
11. The infusion pump assembly of claim 10 wherein the sealing assembly comprising an o-ring assembly.
